The shortened, in comparison with other subtypes of breast cancer, progression free survival or the limited influence of the chemotherapy used on the overall survival imply the necessity of searching for new therapies. The use of monoclonal antibodies conjugated with a cytostatic initially allowed selective introduction of the drug into tumor cells showing expression of strictly defined receptor proteins on the cell membrane surface. Modification of the linkers binding the cytostatic to the antibody, on the other hand, allowed activation of the by-stander effect, allowing effective destruction of tumor cells lacking expression of specific antigens on their surface. Sacituzumab govitecan (anti-TROP2 antibody conjugated with inhibitor of topoisomerase I) improve median progression-free survival and overall survival in patients with advanced, metastatic triple-negative breast cancer. Similarly, a beneficial effect from the use of ADCs (trastuzumab deruxtecan) was observed in patients with low HER2 expression. These therapeutic advances are reflected in clinical guidelines from leading organizations such as ASCO and ESMO, and have become the basis for ongoing clinical trials evaluating new ADCs with different molecular targets and cytotoxic mechanisms.

A narrative review was performed using data from articles found in a search of PubMed and Scopus databases using the terms related to statin adherence and statin adverse events by gender. Women are less adherent to statin therapy than men. Statin adverse events and statin intolerance appear to be the main cause of poor adherence to statin treatment.

Female sex has also been identified as a risk factor for statin intolerance. The reports reviewed in the manuscript indicate a higher prevalence of SAMS and new-onset diabetes among women than men. The risk also increases with age and is dose-dependent. Women have also been found to be more susceptible to the nocebo and drucebo effects of statins.
